Cost Of Making a Watch.
From the Lewiston Journal.

From the Lewiston journal.
They were comparing t1mepleces In
the De Witt house office the other
day. A. L. Dennison, of Portland,
was one ofthem. Trustee Ben Hilton,
of North Arson, balanced good
timer on his dexter finger, and Hon.
Rufus Prince, OF South Turner, pro-
duced the old reliable sun regulator
from his watch pocket. 1t looked like
q convention of watchmakers AND
served to point the moral to this
story.
ga cousin of mine," said Mr.. Denni-
son, "who was one of the same name
of myself, was the first person to
make watch by machinery, and it
was he who established the Waltham
watch works in Waltham. Mass. He
was abroad over twenty years in
Switzerland and on the continent in
Producing his watch making machln-
cry.
mot long ago, on a visit to this
country, he came to see me. He asked
me this question: How cheap doyou
suppose | can make watch by ma
chinery, i. e., g. good, fair movement,
one that we could warrant for a term
OF three or four years?' l tried to
answer him and did make a. guess.
Now, what did you say?"
81 can buy EN- for $780," said
Charles Weymouth.
"Oh, say-er-er-$2 replied Mr..
Prince.
Mr.. Dennison smiled, and as he
clicked his jack-knife and put it
in his pocket, replied with that
peculiar satisfaction that always
invests such q situation: "He
said that he could make such a
watch for SO cents"
How about settling with the ieweler
at the tune OF one hundred times as
much.

THE NEW FASHIONED BIBLE.
BY CLARK W. BRYAN.


may have softer words and smoother phrases,
It may fash modern light upon our way;
Have other thought than that OF revelation,
And give new rules to preach by and TO pray
may read lighter, pleasanter and easier
Than words put down by an Inspired Hand,
Which hold their place in my old fashioned
Bible,
That Iay-an lies-wide open on its stand
Let those who will crave man-made modern Yer
sions,
Give rae the Book my mother daily read
And told the story of its weIl-Worn pages
When pillowing at night my weary head
"Old fashioned Bible" full of lore and lesson
To follow closely throughout l1fes full day
OF golden words traced out in living letters,
To guide earth's pilgrims safely on their way.
Why need we change those words of Life Eter-
nal
Old words of deep import. yet ever new?
Gods Promises why bring them into question !:
God S words TO man, plain, steadtast, sure and
true?
Give me then henceforth, throughout LIES for
ever,
The Bibles it waste hold and keep;
To-day New Versions-why not then, tomorrow
Tomorrow. all the morrow when we sleep
The everlasting sleep that knows no waking,
save at the call of Him who gave His Word
That they who read Alright and walk uprightly,
May hail with JOY the coming of the Lord.
Touch not the Bible then, with hands irrrever-
ent
Change not passage not a verse or line;
The Bible written out by inspiration,
That Bible-and that Only-shall be mine.

Saved by a Dire am.

Somerset Cor. Louisville COMMISSIONING
The Courier ournal correspondent
heard g. story to-day OF the etfects OF
g. dream which was the acclden al
cause of saving five lives. The story,
though reading like q novel, Is true IN
every feature. The circumstances are
about as follows: E. r. Hubble and
family, consisting of himself, wife and
three children, living at Science HILL a
small railroad station north or thls
place, retired last evening and, sup
posing everything perfectly secure
were soon in the arms OF drowsy Nor
pheus. During the night the building
caught fire from defective tue and
spread over the house unnoticed and
unimpeded until the whole building
was enveloped in flames; but by O.
providential interpretation OF 3 dream
the lives of ali were saved. The old
est child, @ girl OF IS, dreamed OF a.
terrible railroad accident near their
home. She saw the two engines come
together, then the rebound, throwing
the cars from the track, to be crushed
to pieces in their fall; then she neard
the screams Of the dying men and Wo-
men, the cries Of the crippled unfor-
Inmates, and al the terrible things IN
cidental to such q catastrophe. Then
the cars seemed on fire, and she could
feel the heat almost touching her
cheeks. Every incident was so forcl-
bly, and indelibly imprinted in her
memory, with all the attendant hor-
rors, that the little one awoke to find
the dream in part a reality. The
room was enveloped in smoke, and
flames were darting through the cracks
of the doors and windows. She was
fully awake now and realized the aw-
full peril. All were asleep except her
self, unconscious of the fire which was
almost touching them. She awoke
her father, and soon all were ready to
make a dash for the open air. Mr..
Hubble had to return for one OF the
little fellows who had been forgotten
in their hurry to escape. He reached
him with much difficulty, and secured
toe youngster. In coming out again
his clothes caught fire, burning him
seriously before the flames could be
extinpuished.

Gladstone and Buffalo Bill.
From the Alta California.


One Of our fellow-citizens, Hon.
William E. Cody, whose attention
was drawn to the circus business by
his experience in the Nebraska legis-
lature, has organized an Indian and
cowboy show, with which he visits
England. His Indians dancethe corn
dance of their people, a terpeichorean
performance of d semi-religious char
aoter, originally intended to express
thankfulness to the Great Spirit for
bringing squaw-corn forward to the
roastingea stage. They also perform
the dog-dance, which in like manner
hallows the ripening OF the puppy
crop, when the surplus is used for
coup, while some are saved for later
sacrifice and consumption in the dish
known to the frontier whites as 'tpup-
gullion," for which we have the
receipt, which is at the service of any
epicurean friend. Mr.. Cody's aborigi-
mes also perform the scalp-dance, and
tney also chase a rheumatic buffalo
bull round g. sawdust ring, lasso him
and yank him up, all standing. In
addition to this they shoot at things,
and they do it all arrayed in feathers,
with bear-claw necklaces, and COR
geously daubed with red keel and the
slough-mud of their native land.
1t is a good show, a circus, an Indian
whoop-la, and is as near reproduc'

Hotel Workshops.
From the Hotel Reporter.

From the Hotel Reporter.
A good hotel now has within it's
walls q workshop, in which it employs
painters, carpenters, cabinet-maker,
key-ftter, plumber, glazier, upholster-
er and electrician. The elevator
shafts and interior courts enhance the
danger of fire, though not nearly SO
much as to offset the protection which
marble floors and brick partitions
offer; but that is not q perfect hotel
which is not also fitted with chemical
fire extinguishers and hose plug, and
which has not organized it's male help
into q well-disciplined band of iremen,
practiced in the parts they must play
whenever fire breaks out. The prin-
cipal hotels usually boast of at least
one or two among their porters who
are at the same time professional
bouncers, able to quell disturbances
summarily when they break out. In
the large cities the managers staff is
not complete unless it has detective
or two upon it, usually a man who
knows the faces and tricks of the most
active criminals-especia thieves
and confidence men-in the country,
but the best policing that q big hotel
gets is from its own guests. Their
numerousness and DECENTRALIZATION are
great hinderances to crime.

shotgunned Into a Confession
From the Savannah (Ga.) News.

From the Savannah (Ga.) News.
The young schoolmistress at Tren-
ton, Miss Childress, is very pretty and
bright, and quite belle. A young
man from a neiehboring village made
g. desperate effort to win her favor,
but she dislikes him very much. A
few days ago he began to circulate
damaging reports about the young
lady, which resulted in nice bit of
scandal in the little town. Thestories
finally came to the young lady's ears.
Thoroughly enragei, she borrowed a.
shotgun, mounted horse, and went
in quest of her traducer, whom she
found in his store surrounded by s.
large number of his friends. Cooking
both barrels of her shotgun, which
was loaded with buckshot, she pointed
it at his head, and said: "You viii
lain T! Acknowledge before these gen.
tlemen that you have lied about and
slandered me, and that there is no
truth in anything you have said or 1
will this instant blow out your
brains!'' The young man, amid the
mockery of his companions, promptly
admitted that he had knowingly
slandered the young lady, who imme-
diately left, escorted by an admiring

one, comforting upon g. monopoly
rights of the most exclusive character,
and therefore sure to prove very re-
munerative. But If the Chinese can
st&nd it, Americans have no reason to
complain, but should rather be proud
that American enterprise has pushed
into field of such great possibilities.
The introduction of the telephone in
China will prove another step in the
undermining of that ancient realm. 1t
is but a few years comparatively since
it was capital offense for a citizen of
China to initiate foreign manners and
customs, while foreigner himself who
didn't want to have his head violent
ly separated from his body would keep
out of the country. It is not alto
gether certain how the telephone will
be received in China. A Language that
has fifty thousand characters IN It's
alphabet may find the resources OF the
binary conversation is concluded.
But as Chinese words have Usually
the merit of brevity, there is not the
danger of tangling the wires IN inextrl-
cable confusion that there would be
II Russian, for instance, were the vehl-
Gle of expression. 1t will be interest
ing to await the result OF this expert
ment in inducing the sad-eyed Mongo-
liam to purr out his monosyllables
over the telephone wire. Hewill never
really appreciate how utterly INSULT

tion of the parliamentary practice CT
the Nebraska legislature as Mr.. Cody
can put upon theroad. 1t has already
caused several lads in New York to
pawn their school books and set out
for the wild, wild West, in search OF
gore.
It's proprietor, finding cheap trans
portation imper:led by the fourth
clause of the Interstate commerce act,
fed to England with his Indians, his
cowboys and his buffalos, and has
opened in London. This was good
business move, for England is fond OF
looking at all aboriginal people.
When Zenobia, the unfortunate Queen
of Palmyra, graced the triumph OF
Aurelian, the Roman populace looked
upon her with no liveEier curiosity tnan
that with which the Londoners gaze
upon ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
or The. Indian Observation-Disclosures, or
any other Sioux, Pottowattamie or
Pawnee chief, who strays into En-
gland.
1t was good business tact IN Mr..
Cody to 60 there with his show and
his nickname of Buffalo Bill and his
long hair, but he has struck streak
of luck so fat as to break Barnum'
heart and turn Adam Forepaugh green
with envy, in getting Gladstone to see
his show and afterwards make long
speech about it, which is cabled to
every paper in America.
1t was all just as amiable and pleas
ant as it could be. It will result In
arming all future immigration to this
country, and the exiles who resort to
our shores will hereafter look for
birch canoes at Sandy Hook, and ex-
pect camp fires on Bergen Hill and the
through the Narrows. II they are not
welcomed at Castle Garden with q corn
dance and offered ponies for their
daughters, they will feel that they have
been deceived, and that American life
has not been properly put before the
English public.

or temporary. 1t should be borne in mind that
this aiiment is prone to become lasting and OBJ

Hostetters Stomach Bitters is the precise rem
edy to remove the obstruction effectually, but
without drenching or weakening the blockaded
bowels, a consequence always to be appre-
hended from the use of violent laxatives, which
are among the most pernicious of the cheap
nostrums swallowed by the credulous and mis-
informed. The hat Of experience, and of the
medical fraternity, sanctions the claims of this

An Eccentric Will.
From the Historical Journal.

FROM the d1StOrlCal JOuTHdI-
Probably the most remarkable will
ever made was drawn up by Alderman
Hartman, of Pittsburg, on Thursday,
February IT, 1887. The testator, Am
brose Retharge, who is SO years OF
age, after disposing of $40, 900 in real
este to, directs as follows:
81 direct that my body be taken to
ST. Michael's church, and, after the
proper religious services are per-
formed, that it be given in charge OF
my family, who will convey it to Sam
sons crematory, and there have it
burned to ashes, the ashes to be put
in a. small bottle and given In charge
of the German consul in Pittsburg.
This gentleman will then forward my
ashes to the consul In New York, who
will give them in charge of the captain
of the German steamer Elbe, who will
place them securely in his ship for the
ocean voyage. When at mid-ocean l
direct the captain to request one OF the
passengers to dress in q seafaring suit
and ascend with my ashes in his hand
to the top of the topmost mast, and,
after pronouncing q last benediction,
to extract the cork from the bottle
and cast it's contents to thefour winds
of heaven. Idirect also, while this cere-
mony is being performed, that it be
witnessed by all passengers on board.
After the Elbe has completed her trip
and returned again to New York, ]
want full statement OF my death and
the scattering OF my ashes in mid
ocean published in the Pittsburg pa
pers, SO that my friends in this city
shall know of my burial place.

The Editor and the English Lady
Cornwell IN. W Reflector.

When we were going home, the
streets being more than ankle, deep in
melting snow slush, we overlook an
English lady on the corner of Fourth
Street, New York, apparently dis
mayed at the idea of having to wet
her pretty little feet by crossing. Al
though q perfect stranger to us we
stopped down with the apology,
"Please excuse me-" gathered the
skirt about her ankles, raised her in
our arms and carefully carried her
over and placed her on the dry side
walk. With a grateful smile she said,
ooh | am ever so much Obliged to
you, SIR" and went on her way reioic-
ing we have no doubt.

American Enterprise in china.
From the Pittsburg Commercial

From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette.
A steamer that sailed from San
Francisco recently, took representa-
tives of an American syndicate who
are going to introduce the telephone
in China. This syndicate represents
capital stock of $26, 1000. 900, and has
obtained from the Chinese govern
ment the exclusive right to operate
the telephone in that country for g.
period of thirty years. This is a very
great concession, and very valuable
